Candidate at Sea

A handful of Minnesota political
amateurs who hope to elect their first U.S.

President last week won their first and easiest victory. The Minnesota
G.O.P.

committee officially endorsed their candidatebig, able Lieut.
Commander Harold Stassen (who looks, in garrison cap, like a younger
Eisenhower). From now on, their work will be more difficult.

They must campaign for a candidate who (because of Navy regulations)
cannot admit he is running. They must convince everyone that his
candidacy is no stalkinghorse for Wendell Willkie (many a Stassenite
is, in fact, no Willkieite).
